Isothermal expansion

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
Suppose 161 moles of a monatomic ideal gas undergoes an isothermal expansion as shown in the figure (attached). The horizontal axis is marked in increments on 20 m3

What is the temperature at the beginning and at the end of this process?

OK. But even if I convert kPa to Pa and calculate, that's still not the answer.
T = (400,000 Pa * 20) / (161*8.31) = 5979 K
This seems outrageously large.

True. But you can blame the person who drafted the question. That is the right answer to this question.

One mole of a gas at STP occupies 22.4 litres or .0224 m^3. That is at about 100 kPa pressure and a temperature of 273 K. Here, you have 161 times that amount of gas occupying 80/.0224 = 3571 times as much volume. So to reach the same 1 atm pressure the temperature has to be 3571/161 = 22 times the temperature at STP -about 6000 degrees.
